Re: Can NHRA survive without John Force ?
The Indy Top Dragster and Top Sportsman events will be like a normal National or Divisional event - 6.10 index quarter mile. The Jeg's Super Quick will be part of their series and run on the eighth mile with a 4.50 index.

Re: Can NHRA survive without John Force ?
Meanwhile, NHRA is supposed to go to Denver the first weekend of August. And right now Bandimere is getting it's rearend run through the ringer by local officials because they had *gasp!* more than 175 people at it's July 4 event - and some of them were even standing close to each other.
Oh, the humanity!.... There is so much money, power and influence to be gained that we have "experts", health "professionals" and government "leaders" doing their best to get a piece of the action. Damage to the economy, businesses, livelihoods and freedom be damned. "They" are telling us there's a spike. ICUs are nearly full. Positive tests are way up. But we need to listen to what they aren't saying. What percentage of people in ICUs are COVID patients? Are hospitals still getting a big payment from the feds if they decide a patient has COVID? How many ICUs are filled? How many more tests are being done now than at the beginning of the crisis? And how many people testing positive are actually sick? Has the death rate spiked as well? These are questions I'm left asking after listening to any news reports. The public is being beat up and spoon fed so much BS right now, it's just a shame. |

“The Indianapolis events, both of which will be televised on the FOX Broadcast Network, will be open to a limited number of spectators, with offers being extended via email to NHRA members and 2020 U.S. Nationals ticket holders. The first event, July 11-12, will feature all four Mello Yello classes – Top Fuel, Funny Car, Pro Stock, and Pro Stock Motorcycle – while the second event, July 18-19, will feature Top Fuel and Funny Car along with the E3 Spark Plugs Pro Mod Series presented by J&A Service, Mickey Thompson Tires Top Fuel Harley Series, and the SAMTech.edu NHRA Factory Stock Showdown. Neither event will include Lucas Oil Drag Racing Series competition.” Not trying to be argumentative, but keeping up with the plan is not easy.

Interesting take on things. Totally different than my take on things. At the end of the year one way to tell how real it is, will be by how many National Events actually get run. Stan |

Re: Can NHRA survive without John Force ?
Info. source; I listen to 700WLW, the ATN, from Cincinnati from 12:00am to 5:00am, and you learn alot about what is going on, that you don't hear elsewhere. In the begining it was very hard to get tested, now you could get tested whenever you want, and results get explained in various ways depending on who is talking. Truckers and gate guards can tell you alot of things. John Kissel
